O CHRISTMAS TREE



O Christmas Tree image

Browse the produce aisle and you'll find that there's a bunch of jewel-toned fruits and vegetables fit for decorating a Christmas tree. I like to use multicolored bell peppers and pomegranate seeds, but you can use whatever you're inspired by. Star fruit, of course, is the natural choice for a tree-topper.

Categories     appetizer

Time 2h30m

Yield 12 to 15 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

16 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons chopped mixed fresh herbs, such as dill, oregano, and/or thyme
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
1 bunch fresh parsley, chopped, for coating
Red, orange, or yellow bell pepper bits, 1 slice star fruit, and pomegranate seeds, for decorating
Crackers and crudites, for serving

Steps:

  • Using a stand mixer or a bowl and a spatula, mix together the cream cheese, herbs, garlic, mustard, and salt until combined. Form the mixture into a ball, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • Before serving, form the ball into a tree shape -- like an egg shape, but pointier on top. Roll the tree-shaped ball in the parsley, reshaping it with your hands as necessary. Decorate with bits of bell peppers and pomegranate seeds. Top with the slice of star fruit.
  • Serve with crackers and crudites.

O SWEET CHRISTMAS TREE

These tiny standing trees will dress up your dessert trays and delight your family and guests! No baking, not much effort! Recipe from a village bakery in Ontario. (Amount of chocolate and yield are estimated)

Provided by 5thCourse

Categories     Dessert

Time 40m

Yield 25 trees

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine, melted
2 cups powdered sugar
2 tablespoons half-and-half cream
3 cups coconut
green food coloring (optional)
3 ounces chocolate, for dipping
decorative candies (silver balls)

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients well, except chocolate, using as much food coloring as desired.
  • While 'dough' is still warm and pliable, take about a tablespoon amount (decide how large you would like your trees) and with fingertips, shape into an upsidedown cone/a standing fir-tree.
  • Do not try rolling. Squeeze your amount firmly so it adheres toegther, then stand one end on work surface and shape into a fir-tree, pressing fairly firmly.
  • Do not make tip too sharp in order to accomodate the decorative ball later.
  • When all the 'dough' is shaped, melt chocolate and dip tops of trees.
  • While chocolate is still soft, place silver ball on the tip.
  • A thought: would white chocolate look like snow?
